Messing Around
I was planning a bit of a snarkfest about the government picking up half the cost of our cell phones and Internet service, since they are using them as much as we are. As part of that I was going to do a riff on US Cyber Command providing us with free e-mail accounts at “uscyber.com”. I decided to check on that domain, figuring I would probably grab it if it wasn’t already taken. It belongs to an ISP in Virginia who has owned it since 1999. Oh, well…
I notice that Google is now using SSL, just like DuckDuckGo. Bing and Yahoo still aren’t part of the program. People are starting to react, so I expect more of the Internet to lock up to promote user confidence if nothing else.
